Nettes und gutes Hotel, allerdings auserhalb vom Zentrum.
Pros:

Ein zweckmäßiges Hotel, sauber mit freundlichem Personal. Das Frühstück war gut.

Cons:

Es ist weg weg vom Zentrum, dass man eigentlich nur mit dem Auto oder einem Taxi erreicht. Für einen Fußweg ist es zu weit entfernt.

Not great, room for improvement. Great location and comfortable beds though!
Pros:

Comfortable beds. Nice room. Some lovely areas for meeting friends and family on the ground floor. Excellent parking.

Cons:

Very stingy with towels. Finally got decent sized towels after a few requests. Food not bad, but not great. Chips were hard in the middle. Had breakfast the first morning but didn't bother with it after that because I didn't think it was worth the money. Also my daughters peanut allergy was a problem as a lot of the food on the buffet had no information available about ingredients. I let reception know on the first day that we had a sink that was very slow to drain. Asked 3 times for someone to fix it and it remained the same for the entirety of our 5 night stay.
